Chanel’s annual Tribeca Festival Artists Dinner took place on Monday night, attracting a throng of fans eager to catch a glimpse of attending stars outside The Odeon in downtown New York City. This lavish soirée celebrates not just the filmmakers highlighted at the festival but also the visual artists who create original pieces for the festival’s awards. The connection between art, fashion, and cinema has been a hallmark of Chanel since its inception by Gabrielle “Coco” Chanel in 1910, where she engaged with cultural icons like Erik Satie and Pablo Picasso. This year, notable artists including Lauren Halsey, Alteronce Gumby, and Naudline Pierre are contributing to the program for the 2025 Artists Awards.
The evening was a star-studded affair, with Hollywood luminaires such as Blake Lively, Robert De Niro, Sofia Coppola, and Jon Hamm making appearances. Hamm, who attended with his wife Anna Osceola, expressed excitement over his friend Michael Sherman’s film at the festival, titled Horse Girls.
Jon Hamm and Anna Osceola shared a lighthearted moment discussing their routines, including their post-work rituals, which involve unwinding together at home after filming. Sofia Coppola, another notable guest, attended with her husband Thomas Mars and expressed pride in their daughter Romy Mars, who recently released a single. Coppola’s lighthearted response to Romy’s cheeky TikTok remark about respecting her grandpa’s films added a playful element to the evening.
The gathering beautifully encapsulated the fusion of creativity and personal connections within both the artistic and cinema fields, reaffirming the ongoing partnership between Chanel and the Tribeca Festival in honoring and uplifting talent.
